Roumoglou Enters the Portal (Merged)

[JustbrewitMan]

Sucks but I understand. Really would have loved to see him play here.

I'd love to see him go somewhere like Vermont or Quinnipiac and just light it up!

 

[UC1995]

He might be seeing some pieces moving in and realizes now that he has a few rings, he can look for a place where he can get more play.

 

[NowInStorrs]

I hope he balls out wherever he goes. He can make a real impact somewhere.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Best of luck to him. Certainly excited to see what he can do with real PT.

 

[AllHusky]

Glou would have been "A Cinderella Story" to quote Coach Murrays father. Everybody loves that story, Good luck Apostolos !

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Like I said in the other thread, he's going to be a heck of a player wherever he ends up. Just doesn't have quite the athleticism to keep up on defense vs top-25 teams the way we need him to.

Totally agree.

To be honest, if he returns, I'll be excited, but I also totally understand his choice. He'll shine wherever he goes.

 

[NJHoops]

Got his rings, now he can go get playing time. Good luck!

 

[elmcityboy]

would have loved to watch him get minutes this year, but the reality is he may have remained a deep bench player because of the defensive concerns. i imagine the staff may have communicated as much.

wish him the best. indelible part of our run, particularly this past season.

 

[BGesus4]

Wouldn’t be surprised if Hurley recommended to him that he enter the portal since he’s a good player but not likely to get many minutes ever at UConn

 

[Tyler2Rings]

I love Apostolos. I am fascinated to see the level of offers he gets

 

[Improviser]

If he lights it up at Vermont, it shows he really is a player.

 

[storrsroars]

Doubt he latches on with a P4, but would love to see him at Duq or RMU and get to some of his games. Hell, Pitt lost almost all their 3pr shooters...

 

[ec33]

Too good to not play.

 

[Tenspro2002]

That's too bad, he's a great teammate but realistically this is the right move to get playing time at a level close to this. He was still behind several guys at his position, even considering uncertainty with Karaban, etc.

I do wonder if this indicates any writing on the wall about McNeeley.

 

[boog204]

Dammit... I legit think he can play.

 

[CTBasketball]

I’ll never forget that sequence vs. Georgetown. Hopefully he goes somewhere and gets 20+ minutes.

 

[HuskyV]

Apostolos!!! Hope he latches onto a good program with playing time. This kid can play. Look forward to watching him in different colors.

 

[MrSec224]

This kid was an awesome teammate. Will miss him and wish him well

 

[Tyler2Rings]

Doubt he latches on with a P4

Nothing he showed in his limited minutes tells me he couldn't be a sixth man at some lower P4. Handles, shooting, and size. That said a mid-major is probably the correct approach to get starters minutes and put up numbers

 

[JungleLobo]

Grad student 1 and done here we come.

 

[Phoenixhusky]

Good luck to him, I look forward to following him at his next stop.

 

[3rdbass]

A little surprised especially with Karaban potentially leaving but I guess he would still not have much of a chance to paly with the other highly regarded Freshman forward we are bringing in. Has a great hand, athletic and can shoot the ball from his limited minutes. Good luck Roumoglou where ever you end up and know you will always be a 2 time champion to the fans of UConn.

 

[Henry]

How many other players could sit on the bench the whole game, enter the game during garbage time, and hit a 3 with his 1st shot? Seems like a nice kid too. I wish him well wherever he ends up.

 

[Umami Zen]

Great teammate and a good kid. Will be an asset at his next stop with that stroke of his. Wish him well.

 

[UconnU]

I wish him all the best. He has 2 chips, not much left to do from a winning standpoint, now he needs to go somewhere where he will play. Hopefully he can break the trend of kids who’ve recently transferred out.
